Jason Meyers felt the Ohsweken Speedway in Canada owed him one after destroying his car there on the third lap of the 2007 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series A - Main Feature. He returned in 2008 only to watch the rain but was able to collect a victory in the opener of the Six Nations Showdown at Ohsweken Tuesday night.

“To say this place owed me one is an understatement,” Meyers said in victory lane. “To come back this way and be able to win is great. It's tough to win any World of Outlaws race. They did a great job with the race track tonight. I have to congratulate them for getting out here and working it and giving us a race track. We've been in a little bit of a slump lately and it's been a while. To come out here and get this win is a great building block for the big races that are coming up.”

Meyers took the lead on lap 10 from Jason Sides and held off World of Outlaws point leader Donny Schatz to score his fifth A- Main Feature of 2009.

“I was good around the top on the restarts,” stated Meyers. “That's the hard part about leading, because you don't know where the guy behind you is going. I had a great car that could pretty much go anywhere. It was good in lapped traffic. To come out and race against the best in the business is awesome."

“I guess that makes us worldwide,” Meyers continued. “The World of Outlaws have taken us all over. To come up here and see all of these great fans and for them to see us race is great. We wouldn't trade it for anything.”

“You like to keep going and when the going gets tough, the tough get going,” Schatz said. “The cautions kind of break that momentum a little bit. It's pretty tough when all of these guys have good race cars and you just get strung out. It's tough to pass unless you get to lapped traffic and that's what we look for.”

“We're learning a lot about this race car and we'll keep tuning on it and it gets a little better,” Schatz added. “That was my fault there. I didn't do the right things at the right times. I didn't want to be out front too soon and I just waited too long. I guess that's what cost us.”
